Default 1993 ES300 lost radio, ACC & cig adapter

My 1993 ES300 had a flat so I plugged in a portable air compressor to the cig lighter. It took out the radio, ACC and power antenna. Checked fuses and they seem fine, and also checked under hood fuses.

Is there some sort of secret, hard to locate fuse responsible for all this? A fusible link ? Could something else have blown to cause this?

thnx

You missed a fuse somewhere. Go at it again more carefully, you'll find the culprit.

You blew your 15a cig/radio fuse. its the common link of all three. its located in the instrument panel fuse box. its second row first on the right.

Yeah sounds like the cig/radio fuse for sure.... Sometimes the fuses can blow and still look ok...

ok, thanks. I just sold car and buyer told me this happened. I'm just trying to help him out. I'll let him know. He said he checked all the fuses, including under hood fuses.
